To put it simply, this is the “mid-strolling of a hard lure.” It’s a W swisher designed to suppress excessive movement and create a consistent motion. The area where the lip projects slightly is designed for wrapping in the water. The design was adopted for two reasons. One reason is that the lure can be prevented from sinking at the rear so that it can remain horizontal at all times. The other reason is that it produces “pulling resistance.” This lure can mainly cover a range from the water’s surface to 30 cm directly below, if you use the slow sinking technique. Accordingly, you want to grasp any subtle nuances when using this lure. If slow retrieval is possible, the lure can cover up to one meter. A wide 360-degree range can be covered with just a simple reeling-in action.
The recommended season to use this lure is from post-spawning to autumn. You should consider using the SHINGO Screw before the rainy season, and target fish eaters that are found at the mouths of wands or in currents upon recovery after spawning. This is when fish eaters become conscious of the movement of baits after their spawning. In autumn, they move targeting back water areas to catch a school of small fish. At this time the “voracious eaters” come from below and swallow baits in a single gulp. On the other hand, “chasers that get caught by the rear hook” are wondering, “What is this?” When a fish eater gets hooked, it remains calm for a while, but once you reel the line the fish becomes violent due to the fact that the fish eater swallowed the lure, thinking that it was a bait fish. We humans cannot reel the line at a constant speed and motion, so the lure picks up small irregularities, and sometimes flashes slightly in a rolling motion. This creates a subtle reflected light that simulates the reaction of a life form, instead of prompting the fish eater to react. Suppress the strength of the lip and bring the lure closer to the fish eater, without alarming it, and then create a screw motion with slight reflected light to make the fish bite.
